With this new update, I've added more information on each planet. Elemental sites have been added, as well. These locations are strongly connected to the eight elements in the power system and help make each planet feel more unique. I feel like I've covered a good amount of information so far, but I'm going over what's been established periodically to check for consistency and potential missing information.
Expanding the Universe
- New Planets and Locations:
- Tempus: Tempus now has time-warped valleys and The Eden, a vast biodome complex housing plant and animal species from across the galaxy. It has one moon, Fortuna.
- Mars: Mars now has kinetic storms and kinetic reactive crystals. Its sites are Olympus Mons and Vallis Marineris. It also has a new city, Pyrrha.
- Vesta: Vesta now has crystal sanctuaries, massive crystal formations floating among the islands, sustained by its magnetic fields. It also has the "Winds of the Dawn". These powerful magnetic currents flow through Vesta's upper atmosphere. The Ohrinthi used to harness these currents for their airborne vessels, developing intricate sailing routes.
- Vulcan: Vulcan now has magma forge sanctums, the Den of Storms, and nuclear wells as its elemental sites. This planet has one moon, Calē.
- Akrul: Akrul now has matrix crystals, rare minerals in Akrul's crust that possess unique self-repairing properties. These crystals have interlocking structures that can realign under pressure, allowing them to repair structural damage. Its elemental sites are the Citadel and the Shatterproof Plains.
- Antagonistic Factions:
- Akrulan Legion: The Legion is led by the Krul, military commanders who hold political power over territories within the planet’s conquest. The strongest among these commanders is known as the Akzral, who serves as the supreme leader of the Legion. The Akzral's word is law, and their decisions shape the strategy and direction of the Legion's conquests. You can find more about its structure and leadership on the site.
- Exceeds: The Exceeds possess advanced knowledge of matter and energy manipulation. Its high officials, the Archons, are adept MARVEL-class wielders. This faction will see continued development as it is the most recent.
Deepening the Classes
More information was provided on the different playable classes, mostly regarding their limitations. This was done to make each class feel more distinct. I have had ideas for potential new ones, but I want to start the server with the five already established, reworking and polishing them as necessary. Maybe when the server is released, I'll consider working on others.
